The Coffee Club Meadowlands Plaza sits in Meadowlands Shopping Plaza on the corner of Meadowlands Drive and Whitford Road in Howick, Auckland — part of The Coffee Club New Zealand's nationwide café family, built around the simple pleasure of good coffee and generous café food.
The menu covers all the café bases: wholesome all-day breakfast, café classics, burgers, sandwiches, tacos and nachos, fresh salads and a dedicated kids' meal menu, all paired with a full range of hot and cold beverages. Alongside the espresso favourites, you'll find things like the Loaded Nachos with Mexican beef, chicken or vegetarian toppings, the fan-favourite Loaded Fried Chicken & Bacon Croissant, and the plant-based Vegan Crispy Chicken Noodle Salad.
Beyond the counter, The Coffee Club runs a VIP Club with exclusive perks, gift cards you can order online, and an online ordering platform for takeaway. Whether it's a morning coffee, a family lunch or a sweet treat — keep an eye out for limited-time collaborations like Cookie Time's CookieBake Slice — it's an easy, family-friendly stop in East Auckland.
On the corner of Meadowlands Drive and Whitford Road, tucked into Meadowlands Shopping Plaza, The Coffee Club Meadowlands Plaza is Howick's spot for the simple pleasures done well — a proper cup of coffee, breakfast served at any hour, and a menu that stretches from burgers and sandwiches to tacos, nachos and fresh salads.
The café is part of The Coffee Club New Zealand, a brand built around one inviting idea: pair good coffee with generous café food and make yourself at home. That spirit runs through everything here, whether you're settling in for a lazy weekend breakfast, catching up with friends over lunch, or grabbing a quick flat white between errands.
Breakfast is the anchor. The all-day breakfast menu means wholesome morning plates are on the table whenever the mood strikes, not just before eleven. Beyond breakfast, the classics section covers the café favourites regulars lean on, while the burger and sandwich menus handle the heartier appetites.
For something with a bit of kick, the tacos and nachos range has become one of the more talked-about parts of the menu — the Loaded Nachos in particular, which come with your choice of Mexican beef, chicken or a vegetarian topping. Lighter appetites are well looked after too. The fresh salads menu recently welcomed the Vegan Crispy Chicken Noodle Salad, a plant-based dish that — in the brand's own words — brings all the crunch and all the flavour, with none of the compromises.
And then there's the Loaded Fried Chicken & Bacon Croissant. After proving so popular with customers that it earned a permanent spot on the menu, this fan favourite has become a signature order: flaky croissant, crispy chicken, bacon — no apologies.
Coffee sits at the heart of The Coffee Club experience, and the hot beverages menu covers the full run of espresso favourites alongside the brand's signature brews. The cold beverage line-up goes further, with frappes and chilled drinks for warmer days.
Recent additions have given regulars something new to talk about. The Banana Bread flavour — a classic done another way — comes as a frappe, a cold foam or a latte, so the trend can follow you hot or cold. Sweet tooths are covered as well: The Coffee Club teamed up with Cookie Time to bring the new CookieBake Slice into stores for a limited run until October, an official excuse to treat yourself.
With a dedicated Kids' Meal menu, the café is an easy choice for families in Howick. Parents can order something for themselves from the main menu while the kids get a plate sized for them — a combination that makes weeknight dinners and weekend catch-ups equally simple.
Being inside Meadowlands Shopping Plaza adds to the convenience. It's a natural meeting point before or after the shops, an easy stop on the school run, or a reliable standby when you're in East Auckland and need somewhere everyone can agree on.
Regulars have a few ways to get more out of their visits. The Coffee Club VIP Club unlocks exclusive perks for members, and gift cards can be ordered online — a handy option for the café lover in your life, with a balance checker on the website so nothing goes to waste.
For days when you'd rather enjoy your meal at home or the office, The Coffee Club New Zealand runs an online ordering platform, letting you place your order ahead of time.
The Coffee Club Meadowlands Plaza delivers what the brand does best in a convenient Howick location: all-day breakfast, a menu broad enough to please the whole table, coffee at the centre of it all, and a few surprises along the way — from loaded nachos to a vegan noodle salad with real crunch. Come for one plate, as the brand's own feed puts it, and you may well leave wanting three.
